These domains are designed according to search items used in keywords. There are known as exact match domains (EMDs). The recent updated EMD will keep watch on such websites and will provide more relevant results to the researchers.

There are various websites who have huge fleet of keywords, un-required links followed by various promotions of different brands. All these things have nothing to do with search made by the users. The new updated EMD will look after on all these subjects and will include only those websites in SERP which get through white SEO practices.

Understanding the EMD update:

In the words of principle engineer of Google, Mr. Matt Cutts, this new update will minimize the chances of low quality content, control the exact matching of domains in SERPs.
